Optical Bonding and Dynamic LED Enhancements for Displays.
What is optical bonding?
Optical bonding is a method used to enhance the quality and physical strength of an LCD display. It’s the process of filling the air gap between the LCD and glass with an adhesive or resin, such as silicone. Once cured, the silicone adds multiple benefits to the bonded display such as light refraction (from both LCD backlight and outside light), increasing durability against vibration, water, and dust, improved touchscreen accuracy, and prevents fog and condensation in humid environments.
What are the types of optical bonding?
There are three types of adhesives used in optical bonding. Those types are silicone, epoxy, and polyurethane.
What are some applications that require optical bonding?
Optical bonding applications specific to Vartech customers include, but not limited to the petroleum industry (oil rigs), marine use (yachts and US Coast Guard), aircraft, railroads, and bus stations.
